MEGA BLOCKBUSTER -- WHIR please

Postby sigriffey » Thu Aug 13, 2009 9:49 pm

Do I do this mega deal? This may have overlap from an earlier post, but much has changed...

I GIVE: Evan Longoria, Derek Jeter
I GET: Matt Holliday, Michael Young, Adam Wainwright, and Jonathan Papelbon

(i'll throw in Masterson to keep him away from teams playoff bound)

My projected 6 keepers right now: Pujols, Utley, A-Rod, Longoria, Sabathia, Halladay

So if I do this, I keep Matt Holliday instead of Longoria. Bolster my rotation and pen for this year.

only thing is that I can keep Longoria for 2 more years, whereas the other guys I can keep for one more year. But make the play for this year?


stat categories: R, 1B, 2B, 3B, HR, RBI, SB, BB, AVG -- IP, W, L, CG, ER, ERA, K, SV, WHIP


My Team:

C M.Wieters
1B A.Pujols
2B C.Utley
SS D.Jeter
3B A-Rod
OF J.Damon
OF N.McLouth
OF J.Werth
UT E.Longoria
UT N.Morgan
UT B.Butler
B Griffey, K.Suzuki

SP Sabathia, Halladay, Greinke, Billingsley, Oswalt, Blanton, Duke, (and Masterson and Holland temporarily)
RP Broxton, Street

For this year I like it for you. Holliday gives you the same if not better numbers for the remainder of this year. Plus, depending on where he signs, he could rake next year. I'd say go for it. We play to win. Especially if this deal puts your competitors in a worse position. Good luck.

I agree, This year, you will make out for sure, and if Holliday signs in a good hitters park for next year, you are in just fine for next year. Do it!

Bump

Anyone else think this deal is worth doing?

I like Jeter a lot, but probably not keeping him as of now...

It's either this deal, or:

Longoria for Holliday and Wainwright

or stand pat

Win this year, that should be your motto (especially if you're close). That being said, I like the deal for you. With Arod at 3b already you can afford to deal Longo and pick up a blazing hot Holliday.
